Hey guys! I recently acquired a wooden hutch for my indoor bunnies. Its about 4 foot long by 2 foot wide and 2 foot high with a wire floor and a door in the front and a door on top. The front is enclosed with wire as is the floor. It needs some work- I'm going to give it a fresh coat of paint and replace the wire because it's dirty and kinda rusty.
Since my bunnies are indoor bunnies, I'm going to try to adapt this cage to use as an outdoor enclosure for them to use when it cools off this fall. I'm wanting to put it in the grass so they can munch on it and hang out safely outdoors without me watching them every second. However, my husband doesn't like them digging in the yard :rollseyes . So, my question is this: If I use some chicken wire kinda stuff to enclose the bottom so that they can eat the grass but not dig, will they be okay? I'm afraid they'll insist on trying to dig and they will hurt their little feet or toenails.
Thoughts? Thanks guys!
